Those requirements were specified with older processors, besides the i5-4200U in the Yoga 2 Pro boosts its speed up to 2.6 GHz when necessary (and it has 4 effective cores, 2 actual/2 virtual), so it shouldn't have any problems. Of course, if the trial mode of the Windows version actually worked, you could test it out, which is what I'd like to do - try before buy!
